He didn't have any special feelings towards Maria like the other members of the Sui family... After all, as a human being, it was unlikely for him to have such an illusory thing as memory inheritance.

He was simply a little curious about the other person's existence.

At this point, he was certain that he had seen the other person somewhere.

But he just couldn't remember who the other person was or where he had seen Maria.

Complex emotions piled up in his mind, making him a little confused.

My heart felt as if it was being scratched by a cat's claws.

Who is she?

"What's wrong?"

Of course, Maria also noticed the other party's doubts.

But the difference was that she didn't deliberately hide anything. Instead, she turned her head and looked at the other person seriously.

"No...it's nothing."

Zuo Xing really wanted to ask who the other person was, but after hesitating for a while, he shook his head.

He has already drawn a portrait of Maria these days and had it sent back to his family for investigation.

If Maria is really a special person, then he will probably be able to confirm her identity within this period of time.

If she is really one of your own, asking rashly will only make her feel that you don't trust her, thus causing resentment.

Similarly, if the other party is a dangerous person, then your questions will arouse his vigilance and alert him, thus alerting him.

So the best outcome is to not ask anything...

"Yeah."

Of course, Maria noticed something amiss in the other person's words.

But she didn't say much, just continued to read the book quietly.

Some time passed again, and she raised her head slightly as if she felt bored.

"Left..."

"Ok?"

"Do you know Zuo Zheng?"

"Left...right?"

The sudden mention of the name made Zuo Xing stunned for a few seconds.

Obviously, this name was unfamiliar to him.

But fortunately, after thinking carefully for a while, he nodded.

"I know."

Even in the century-old Zuo family, there are not many people named Zuo Zheng.

The most famous one among them is naturally the one who participated in the fight against demons and evil spirits seven hundred years ago.

Zuo Xing naturally also learned about her life.

only……

"Why do you bring this up?"

"Nothing, just curious."

Maria tilted her head slightly and looked at the other person.

After knowing that Zuo Xing was a descendant of Zuo Zheng, Maria became a little interested in this young man.

To be honest, even now, Maria is not familiar with this feeling of dislocation where things have changed and people have changed.

I was still communicating with my friends a few days ago.

In just the blink of an eye, the other party disappeared, replaced by his descendants of who knows how many generations...

Maria still couldn't get used to this subtle feeling...

"How has she been since the war?"

"After the war?"

Maria's tone made Zuo Xing stunned for a moment.

But he finally realized that the other party was probably talking about the war to conquer demons and evil spirits.

But Maria's questioning tone...

Why does it seem like she participated in it just a few days ago?

After thinking for a while, Zuo Xing threw this strange idea out of his mind and turned around to continue.

"After the war, Senior Zuo Zheng, seemingly unaccustomed to the duties of the imperial court after years of military service, voluntarily requested a transfer to the northern border."

"After that, he fought several more wars with Ursus, achieving great victories in each battle. Finally, he died of illness on his 150th birthday and was sent back to the Zuo family..."

Zuo Xing blinked.

There are actually records of Zuo Zheng’s life within the Zuo family.

But unfortunately, I don’t know if it’s a problem of length, most of the records about Zuo Zheng’s life started from the battle after Nanjiang City resisted the giant beast, and the most detailed ones are the big and small events that happened during the expedition against demons and evil spirits.

There is very little story content about what happened before and after.

Even at the end, there were only a few strokes.

Zuo Xing also guessed that there was some unknown hidden secret.

However, with the current capabilities of people, it is indeed difficult to investigate this.

In addition, even if the truth is revealed, it will not have much impact on the present.

So he really didn't bother to care about the details of what happened.

After all, even if something really happens, there are people at home to deal with it, right?

"……is that so?"

Maria blinked.

Obviously, Zuo Zheng's answer did not satisfy her.

But now there is not enough time, and she is too lazy to ask too many questions.

Just to be sure.

"She had a good death, didn't she?"

"Ah."

"This is enough."

Maria snapped and slowly closed the book in her hand.

This posture, on the contrary, aroused Zuo Xing's curiosity even more.

But he didn't have time to ask.

Maria stood up and looked at the furtive figures at the door with a little confusion.

They gathered together and gradually went out.

"Ok?"

Maria blinked.

When Maria saw them, they obviously noticed Maria and looked away.

This made Maria frown.

Are these people... avoiding me?

why?

"You...are interested in Senior Zuo Zheng?"

Perhaps it was Maria's mention of Zuo Zheng that aroused Zuo Xing's suspicion. He put down the pen in his hand and planned to come over and communicate with Maria more.

But Maria glanced at the other person silently.

After hearing Zuo Xing's words, everyone in the Sui family downstairs became a little nervous.

This made Maria certain that these people had not informed Zuo Xing of what they were going to do.

In other words... they plan to act on their own!

This is a complicated matter.

Regardless of what these people are going to do, the fact that they didn't tell Shi Zuoxing shows that the matter is not easy to report.

To put it simply, this matter was just because everyone was busy and forgot about it.

But to put it in a broader sense...

This is most likely an act of resistance from the Sui family against the Yan Kingdom...

This matter could be a big thing or a small thing, it's really hard to judge.

Although she didn't know what her family was planning to do, Maria decided to cover for them.

Turn around.

"nothing……"

Maria said, slowly returning to her chair.

Zuo Xing, who was standing by, also hesitated for a few moments. It would feel a bit silly for Maria to look back at this time, so after hesitating for a while, he decided to take a look at the scenery outside.

But Maria's words made Zuo Xing stunned.

"I just... miss it a little bit."

"what?!"

……

"Is everything... alright?"

The few people from the Sui family gathered together, and when they found that Zuo Xing did not come out to check, they also breathed a sigh of relief.

They were almost scared just now.

After all, the plan they are about to push forward is a plan that Maria has explicitly rejected and cannot be used.

They are also unsure whether others will accept the bold move they are about to make.

In the best case, it is better not to reveal it.

only……

"..."

Shu turned his head and looked at Maria's dazed back not far away, and was speechless for a moment.

But she didn't have time to think about it.

With the calls of her family around her, she gritted her teeth and started to act quickly.

It's just that there is a corner that she didn't notice.

Maria stood quietly on the second floor, watching her go away calmly...

……

It didn't take the Sui family much time to arrive at an unknown and remote corner.

And this is the area that everyone selected first, the area with the flaws...

"Is this method...really feasible?"

Even at this time, everyone couldn't help but worry.

After all, there's a lot at stake.

Once there is any problem, the entire Da Yan will be affected.
